My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 655 Borrowing Money

“Ding!”

“System Mission: Take a photo of that god statue in front!”

“Task reward: 20 energy points!”

If it weren’t for this ridiculously brief, quest prompt that didn’t conform to the system’s previous style at all, Gervais would naturally not have any interest in this statue.

Since Gervais came to the Holy Continent, the system seemed to be hiding, without any sense of existence.

Now he is actively releasing a quest for this stone statue. Although the quest reward Gervais is not very attractive, he still needs to choose carefully.

So Gervais turned his attention to the auction field,

As Luckey said earlier, although the stone statue was only 5,000 gold coins, at this time the But still no one bids.

The regulation of this otherworld auction is that if no one opens the auction for about two minutes, then this lot will pass the auction and the next lot will be auctioned.

Gervais calculated that there were still more than half a minute left, and if no one spoke, he was ready to bid.

Although he doesn’t have any gold coins on him now, he can borrow 5,000 coins from Adela in the name of Harry later. gold coin is still ok.

As for Luckey, if he borrowed 500 gold coins from Lucky, it should be no problem, but he couldn’t get 5,000 gold coins.

In this way, Gervais was about to open his bid when he suddenly heard someone in the audience opened the mouth and said first.

“I will give out 5100 gold coins!”

After hearing the sound, Gervais immediately moved towards the direction where the sound came from, and found that the person who made the bid was sitting on the floor. In the lobby on the first floor, this person should also be curious about the stone statue, and he chose to open the auction when he saw that there was no competition.

At this time, many people in the field looked at the person who opened the auction like a fool.

Only while they were watching the guy’s good show, the second idiot appeared again.

“I’ll give out 5,300 gold coins!”

Gervais knew that he couldn’t wait any longer, so he immediately bid and added 200 gold coins at one time.

As Gervais’s words spread, everyone moved away from the previous man and looked towards the second fool in surprise. .

As long as people who know this stone statue will not buy it again, and several people who often participate in the auction of the Holy Trading Company also know that this one stone statue has been passed out two or three times, although the auction is open. The price is getting lower and lower, but it has never been auctioned away. Didn’t expect two fools opened the auction in a row today.

“Harry, you’re crazy! That’s 5,300 gold coins!”

Hearing the bidding sound coming from his side, Luckey turned around and stared. Glancing at Gervais.

He was just worried that Harry would be interested in this stone statue because of the deeds of the Golden Shield family, so he finally said a lot of negative teaching materials and warned him again.

But didn’t expect to stop Harry!

At the same time, Adela also saw Gervais and Larch. Seeing that the second bidder turned out to be Gervais, a strange look appeared in her eyes.

“The magician has bid 5300 gold coins, is there anyone who wants to increase the price?”

“5300 gold coins for the first time!”

“5300 gold coins for the second time!”

“5300 gold coins for the second time!”

Bang!

“Congratulations to the magician at position 56 for taking this stone statue with 5,300 gold coins!”

The first person who opened the auction before just saw No one was present at the auction, thinking about buying this stone statue with more than 5,000 gold coins to study it and bet on luck.

But Gervais added 200 gold coins as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he was determined to win this stone statue, and naturally he would not continue to bid.

When the third hammer in the host’s hand fell, the stone statue was photographed by Gervais for 5,300 gold coins.

“Lucky, when the squires bring that lot in later, you tell them to wait, and I’ll go to Adela to borrow some money!”

Gervais Seeing that the two attendants had carried the statue of the god down the high platform, moved towards him, and immediately whispered to Larch.

“Harry, you…”

Lucky felt bad for Gervais because of his 5,300 gold coins, but now he heard that Harry even paid for the stone statue All gold coins need to be borrowed from Adela, and his tone suddenly stagnates, not knowing what to say.

“I’m leaving!”

Gervais naturally couldn’t tell himself the real reason for taking the statue of the god, so he didn’t explain much. Go directly to the seat where Adela is.

“Adele!”

Because it was on the same floor, Gervais just walked a few steps and came to where Adela was, lowered his voice and moved towards her shouted.

Adela was looking at Gervais before and naturally saw Gervais coming towards her.

Although he was a little confused as to how Harry came to him, he smiled at Gervais.

“Harry, didn’t expect you to come to the auction, are you looking for me?”

“That’s Adele, I just photographed it. That stone statue, but I don’t have so many gold coins on my body now, so I want to borrow 5,300 gold coins from you, don’t worry, I will definitely return it to you within three days.”

“Yeah! Gold coin even took pictures of that stone statue!”

Rao is that Adela is very familiar with Gervais, so she couldn’t help being surprised by his actions.

What kind of mentality does she have to do such a thing, which is different from the impression Harry had given her in the past.

At this time, Edward finally put his gaze over, moved towards Gervais and took a closer look.

In Waddington’s reports these days, this student named Harry has the closest contact with Adela, but this Harry was a trainee magician a few days ago, and naturally the impossible is the one who prepared the potion .

At this time, Edward looked thoughtful when he heard that he took pictures and asked his granddaughter to borrow gold coins.

Because Gervais did this, either he saw something special about the statue, or he was a heartless man who wanted to dream.

Just from what Waddington said last time, this Harry, who dared to face hundreds of orcs alone, should not be the kind of unsettled person who wants to gamble on stone statues. people.

It doesn’t make sense if it’s another, because even he didn’t see anything strange about the stone statue, so he didn’t believe that the primary level magician in front of him could see it.

“I have seen Duke Edward!”

Gervais saw Adela’s grandfather also looking over, and immediately shouted respectfully.

He and Adela are friends, so even if Edward is his elder, Gervais is naturally very polite.

“Well, are you Adela’s classmate? I’ll lend you 5,300 gold coins! Come and sit down later!”

Hearing Gervais’ greeting, Edward opened the mouth and said in a flat tone.

Gervais didn’t understand what Edward meant, why he would borrow his gold coin, and was thinking about whether to agree, but Adela spoke up.

“Grandfather, Harry is borrowing money from me, and of course I’m the one to lend him!”

Adela heard her grandfather’s words, although she didn’t know it What did he mean, but seeing Harry hesitated, he said immediately.

“Haha! It’s fine! Adela, borrow it!”

Edward laughed immediately after hearing Adela’s words, without refuting.

He didn’t mean much, but he just wanted this young man named Harry to come over and sit for a while, and investigate for himself, after all, this was the only one he had seen who was closest to Adela. of youth.

As for borrowing gold coins, he knew that with the character of his granddaughter, a friend who was recognized by her asked her to borrow money, not to mention 5,000 gold coins, it was estimated that it was 10,000 gold coins, as long as With a valid reason, she would lend it out.

So he just used the borrowing talk to get Harry to come and sit for a while.

“many thanks Duke Edward, I’ll be here later after paying the gold coin!”

“Thank you Adela!”

Although I don’t understand Edward’s intention, but Gervais could not refuse the invitation from the elders, and finally agreed.

“Harry, this is 5,300 gold coins, you have put them away!”

At this time, Adela has also taken out a wooden coin from the space ring. The small treasure chest and three small black purses were then placed in front of Gervais.

“Sure enough, it’s a Little Rich Lady!”

Seeing the small treasure chest on the ground, Gervais immediately remembered the scene of seeing Lolita for the first time.

The original Lolita took out several piles of gems from the storage space and used them as the stone to destroy the magic array, but Adela at this time has the same effect!

Silently holding the small wooden box and three small purses, Gervais left Adela’s position under the strange gazes of the people around her.

After returning to his original position, Gervais saw two attendants of the Holy Trading Company already waiting with trays containing stone statues.

Gervais didn’t say much. After checking that the stone statue was the same as before, he directly handed the small wooden box and the three money bags to the two attendants.

After the two attendants left, Gervais carefully looked at the statue of the god in his hand, and Larch also took a moment to look at it, but in the end he didn’t find anything strange, so he withdrew his gaze. .

This statue doesn’t feel strange in the hand, it is no different from ordinary stone carvings.

I don’t know if it is because of the contamination of the god’s breath, but the statue of the god is very complete, and there is not even any trace of weathering.

As for whether this statue is a fake or not, not to mention that the system has already given a hint, the reputation of the Holy Trading Company itself can make everyone believe that it must come from somewhere in the land of the gods. ruins.

The reason why Gervais had to check earlier was that he was worried that someone else might drop the package along the way.

“The armor of the statue is really beautiful, um, it looks like a stab gun on the back, which is quite rare!?”

The face of the statue of the god is a handsome middle -aged man, the texture of the armor on his body is clear and carved very delicately, and there is a stab gun on his back.

In this foreign world, most of the title Knights Gervais has seen are holding long swords, unless they are cavalry with stab guns.

So when nobles make their own statues or oil paintings, most of the time they hang a long sword on their waists, but this is not the case for this god. He doesn’t see a long sword on his waist, and the only thing is tied on his back. With a stab gun, and it is a stab gun that can be divided into two sections.

Strange is strange. After checking for a while, and finding nothing else strange, Gervais immediately faked it into his sleeve, but actually put it into the space ring.

“Lucky, Duke Edward told me to sit at his place for a while, do you want to go with me?”

“Ah? I’ll forget it!”

Larch heard Gervais’ question and was surprised that Edward invited Harry to sit over.

He actually wanted to go there too, after all Adela was there.

But thinking of Duke Edward’s presence, Larch wisely chose to stay away.

“Okay, then I’ll go first!”

Seeing that Larch was not ready to go, Gervais and La Strangely said goodbye, then moved towards Adela and walked again. go.

That’s it for tonight! Everyone rest early!
